Auschwitz was a concentration/death camp which was established in 1940 and permanently closed forever in 1945. It was the biggest death camp out of all the Nazi concentration camps. The camp was created by Heinrich Himmler. Over four million people were killed in just this camp by the Nazis and SS soldiers.
